We flirt with board game romance novels and resist the tastiest tabletop pieces on the Dicebreaker Podcast

On this week’s Dicebreaker Podcast, Matt, Johnny and Lolies run through what we’ve been playing and discuss the latest headlines from the world of tabletop, before settling down with a cheesy romance novel - board game-themed, of course - and treat ourselves to some deliciously inedible game pieces.

Hot off the presses, we question this year’s Origins Awards winners, lament the cancellation of PAX Unplugged, look ahead to some of this winter’s upcoming releases and discuss the latest record-breaking Pokémon card sale.

We also attempt to come up with the most romantic board game book taglines, scientifically determine the tastiest board game pieces and offer our advice on turning your tabletop hobby into a career. Plus more of your questions answered and plenty of other chatter and debate.
